The CRaFTi EsSeNTiAl Collection - Distress Ink and Heat Embossing :D


Using my new background stamps with heat embossing and over stamping with Distress Inks spritzed with water :D :D :D I've never really had that many background stamps in my crafty stash (mainly because they're expensive lol) but I've been acquiring more and more recently and I really like the ease at which you can create an all over pattern :D And the good thing about my Background Stamps, is that they're only £4.99!! such a great price :D And they're photopolymer too, which I find easier to get a good impression with than large rubber background stamps :D You can use them with your Tim Holtz Stamping Platform, on an Acrylic Block, or even just leaving them on their backing sheet!! I like to do this when heat embossing because you can get really good all over pressure :D :D Also another tip is using a brayer to apply pressure, I find this enormously helpful when I haven't got the strength in my hands to press down really firmly :D :D :D
